    Good afternoon, wow we are up to 5 degrees now.

    I am so thankful for grandparents who are teachers, because when so is closed they are off. So they came and took the boys for the day and night. Yippy!!! So hubby and I can have some quality time. yeah!!!! I walked 2 miles today, but can't find the energy to really workout, so I will try and do some cleaning.

    Have a great weekend and for those of you are in the cold states like me, STAY WARM!!1

    Okay, you can quit bragging about your warm weather now! :grumble: (The news says it's 6 degrees right now.)

    I'm at 10 degrees with a wind chill of -3. Just took my son to work, and my daughter to basketball-- and I have no heat in my van. My fingers and toes are frozen-- kinda hard to type with frozen digits, you know?

    Trying to warm up here and then head back to work-- brrrrrr.:noway:

    Wow today has been a pretty good day. My kids and the kid I am babysitting today are being so good, it is almost if they aren't even here. I got my hubby to take pics of me today, and there is actually a difference from last month to now. All I have lost is 9 lbs but I can still see a diference. And my hubby bought me Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum and My fitness Coach which I will be trying tonight.

    Good Morning Mommies,

    Well it is actually above zero today it is 14 degrees this morning, we do have a nasty wind so I am not sure what the windchill is, we had to jump hubbys truck this morning I hope it stays running. I am really hoping to get out of the house today (praying) I am sure the kids would even enjoy a trip to town as much as we have been stuck at home this week with the weather.

    Hope it warms up for everyone today:flowerforyou:

    Morning,
    You ladies doing okay? I'm okay. I'm trying to get back to logging my food. I have been eating everything in sight! I am struggling with depression. Maybe logging will help me straighten up. DH said I need to log. He said it's the only way I am going to lose weight because I eat for comfort. So here we go.
    The therapist brought over some really cool toys for Alex. They said they were donated but I think only one of them has actually been used! They are nice toys! One of them is that fishing game with the pole and the fish go around in a circle and you catch them with the pole. One is a nice but simple wood puzzle box with different puzzles in it. Cooties. lol. I haven't played that since I was a kid. And a few other things. Alex played with a few of them last night and liked them.
    Still have a sore throat and mucus stuck there also. I kept waking myself up last night snoring! It seemed like I would just doze off and wake myself up again. Needless to say I am tired today. DH said I've been snoring the last 3 nights, which I rarely ever do. It's just that all the junk is sitting in my throat. I've been taking stuff to try to break it up so it won't turn into a cold or infection, but nothing has worked so far. I'll keep trying!
    I hope you all have a good Saturday. Thanks for listening to me ramble. I'll talk to you later.
    MM

    Ok all of ya'll are going to hate me..... its 54degrees n feels like 54degrees...I dont know how ya'll do it. My hubby is in Indiana right now n he says its snowing n so cold, n hes Filipino so even 54 feels cold to him..


    Well I've been up since 4am this morning because thats when Ayden started to get fussy n gassy, yesterday it was 5am the day before it was 430am.... although at night hes now starting to fall asleep around 8 or 830, so thats nice I just wish he'd stay asleep a bit longer. I guess I've gotta start teaching myself to go to bed at 8 now, ugh... n he still hasnt pooped since Thurs evening... I just wish he could poop easier, didnt have as much gas, slept longer at night and could actually play with me when hes awake.... I dont get why people say they love this stage, I am not liking it, I want him to be older so we can play games, play sports, bake cookies or cakes n he can help n then decorate them too, go to the park ride bikes the movies the mall anywhere but staying here at home!! Im just going stir crazy stuck here, I wanted my errands to last forever but he doesnt like his carseat after a while n he was getting fussy n I needed to get home n pump since I had missed a feeding.... ugh when does he get fun??? gosh I feel like a horrible mother!

    hi! so, i got 30 day shred yesterday, and was a little nervous cause i've been hearing how hard it is. i had a little trouble with the push ups, but other than that it was no problem!! i was so excited, and most of the moves i could do the regular impact instead of the easier version. today my calves are burning but it was so worth it. i feel like i'm actually getting somewhere with my excercise and stamina. YAY!! just had to toot my own horn for a minute. hope everyone is having a good day.

    That is a hard stage to go through when baby doesn't do a hole lot yet. How I miss that stage though:cry: I had/have a hard time getting to bed shortly after the kids go to bed also and then getting up early in the morning for chores. I still haven't gotten myself trained to go to bed shortly after the kids and my youngest is almost 3.:yawn: I also had trouble with my kids pooping when I was breastfeeding they would go days without and when I took them to the doctor he had me give them formula everyother feeding and that worked but I regret doing that because they ended up wanting the formula instead and I was never able to pump and the bottle was so much quicker. I am sorry I am probably rambling.

    Beth awesome job getting through the workout:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: I haven't found the 30 day shred yet it my wal-mart but am hoping someday soon to get it. I do have the BL cardio max and Jillians sculpting dvd and I have several Walk Away the Pounds dvd's so that is what I am working with right now. Great Job :flowerforyou:
